Greetings! New to Jakarta and I'm stuck. Again, most likely an easy solution but I can't find it.
I'm following the instructions in a book on deploying a war file yet it won't automatically expand when I restart Tomcat. Here's the steps I took and some config stuff: I cd to the working directory of the application, in this case /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/apress jar cvf apress.war . I then move apress.war to /usr/local/tomcat/webapps and delete the apress directory. In my server.xml file I have <!-- Define the default virtual host --> <Host name="localhost" debug="0" appBase="webapps" unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true"> <Context path="/apress" docBase="apress" debug="9" reloadable="true" /> Yet when I restart Tomcat the apress.war file remains and there is no directory called apress. I've read that Tomcat can use the war file rather than a directory but there are some problems. In my case the first page (jsp) appears ok, but it chokes when calling the servlet. What am I missing?
